Illustrating the Short Haul Principle.
Chicago Hrrnld.


A seedy-looking man got aboard a Chi
cage & Northwestern train at Racine The
other day. The train was about two mile,
aut Of Racine when the conductor came up
and asked him for his ticket.
Amt got any, hut I'm a railroad man
myself"
Where do you want TO 20 tor
Chicago
well, said the goOd-natured cOnduc-
tor, reaching for the bell rope. "I1I do
the best / can for You"
Thanks, thanks. We railroad men
should stand together"
YES; we have q heavy train to- day. and
this is o down grade along here. / think
the train will run about $500 feet before
it comes 10 n stop. I'll carry you that far
with pleasure"
A minute or two later the seedy-looking
man was jumping OF into the snow.
''You are very kind 10 carry me even this
far. But, seems we're both railroad men,
You know, couldn't you change your mind
and take me further"
Sorry ! can't oblige you," replied the
conductor, waving 4 go ahead signal to
the engineer, but the fact, is that we have
to he very particular since COngre-s has got
TO pass laws governing railroads. Under
the law the most ! can do far you is 70 give
you q short haul. Good day"
And the train rolled of in the direction
of Chicago.

they had come 10 consume so much, and
put the stove in sach q mess. He turned
of her question with a Jest, that rs they
were all Liberals they had dealt literally
with the scuttle.
One morning. when in his room that
looked out on the back premises, Trip
found in the drawers a plan. She looked
at it carefully and euriOusly, and was sur
priSed to find that it was q plan Of Ring
wood hall. She was convinced that ii was
so; all the rooms were arranged in the
same order as those of the hall. She took
it to her husband.
This is RingwOod, she said.
He started. where did you find it?
What have you been about?'
81 found it in the hack room. What is
it for?"
"Oh, 1 took it when shown over the
place. / said then it was for-building pur-
poses"
''But you are not building in GlOuces-
tershire, you have no Worcestershire prop
erty."
"who told You that ? How clever you
are. Intend to build some day, so keep
the plan by me-"
That is not the plan you drew. That
was in your PocketbOok."
we'll made a clean copy oil paper.
Look here, Trip | will not be spied on
and eross-examined- / give you fair warn
ing, ! will not allow it. Mischief will
come of it."
Trip soon perceived that she was watch
ed BY the woman who did all the house
work, when her husband WAS away. This
woman WAS clearly initiated into the Sc
crets of her master, secrets which were
kept from herself, the wife. This made
Trip Jealous and suspicious. She particu-
Iarly disliked this maid, who had an I'M
pleasant face, and wa dirty. The woman
did not take the pains to be civil to Trip.
She viewed her with malevOlence, and was
sometimes diSOboGient, and occasionally
rude. Trip demonstrated with her u
hand. She said that she could not endure
the woman, and would not live IN the
house with her any longer.
"AIl right" answered Mr.. Beaufort,
I'm give Nelly a months warning. Put
up with her for \ few weeks, and I'll en-
rave YOU another. Servants are hard to
get, and we should be in 4 pretty plight II
left without any
oh. let her 90 - entreated Trip. LET
her 20 at once; | will gladly do her work
myself, for the pleasure Of getting md OF
her"
What - exclaimed her husband. You
work as a mental after having married me?
Not To he thought OF for a momen Mrs.
Beaufort"
Trip. who hadS been so free, was a priS-
oner ; so lively, was nOw penSive; so fond
of singing and skipping and talking, now
sat still in her chair. with her II III her
lap, lOokinga ut the plain paper on the wall
in front of her, doing nothing, and with
out the heart tn sing, and with no N to
whom TO speak.
She put on her pretty crushed strawberry
dress and black mittens and pink bonnet
hat and looked at herself in the glass; then
threw away her bonnet on the bed. cast
herself into the chair again, and the tears
ran silently down her checks.
Poor Trip, She WAS beginning Ia ma
ont that she had been deceived IN every
thing which she had expected.

CHAPTER Nv.
ONCE MORE.


A fortnight had passed since Trip had
made the discovery that her husband was
one of a gang of burglars, and that this
gang had taken the Ringwood plate.
1t was night. The wind was high, blow
ing from the northwest over the clayland
level, aud roaring in the trees of the park.
The only light visible is in the mill. Al
though night, the sails are flying, the mil
Ter is at work, the stones are grinding, the
ShiCter i shaking out the tlOur from the
thick. The light from the mill traces 4
broken thread of fire i'll the dixie, broken
because of the duckwecd which covers the
water.
There are stars in the sky, no moon hut
the stars suffer eclipse from the great clouds
that are rolled over the heavens by the
wind, then shine forth again bright and
frosty. Away in the direction of London
is dull, red, aGr0rl glow, the reflection
of the great city in the haze that over
arches it.
Along the London road from the city
creepS n female figure, feebly, limpingly,
As she creeps to the gate leading TO the mill
she looks up at the light and stands trem-
bling and SObbing-then she creepS on
again, fOot-SOre limb-weary, toward the
park.
Half an hour after she Is at the keepers
lodge. knocking timidly, then louder, but
ever in vain at the door. Then she goes
to the window and looks in, and can just
make out that the interior is bare, no cur
tains. no blinds, no sign of the house he
ing inhabited. She falls on the doorstep
and weepS, and vainly knocks again, but
the knock sounds hollow. There is, there
can be no response. Mr.. and Mrs. Red
fern are no longer there. After the bur
glary at the hall, the keeper fell under sUs-
piciOn for having introduced Mr.. Beaufort,
whom the detectives pronounced to be the
head of a we'll known gang which the po-
lice have been unable TO break or appre-
bend.
Mr.. TOttenham was n perempt0ry man,
and. when he saw that the keepers family
had facilitated theexecution of the robbery,
Redfern was dismissed Immediately, at a
weeks notice, without a character. The
same cate attended the butter, Mr.. Thorn
son, and the housekeeper, Mrs Podgings.
Two hours later the same feeble, foot
sore figure retraced her steps, and came
against the gate leading to the mill. Trip
it was: but altered, broken in spirit and in
body; Trip, now utterly alone in the world.
She could walk no further. Her house
shoes were worn of her feet; her stock
ing sOleS thesOles of her feet worn through.
She was in her crushed strawberry gown,
with q dark cloak over it, the crisp, clean,

There were many ways 10 make money
in the old time that can't be worked now, "
said Col. Bill, as he sat in the corridor OF
the Gracd Hotel yesterday afternoon, talk
ing to a friend. BACK in 1917 was
steward of the Golden Age, as good q craft
as ever sailed between here aud Orleans.
One day a cnlored man, with a good deal
of white blood in his veins, came to me
and said: Say, massa, you want TO make
some money!
Yes, ! do | answered.

| took him along with me and as 500 as
the Golden Age reached Orleans | led him
to the slave market. The a~uctioneers
dressed him up in a new suit, put a smart
cap on his head and the sale commenced.
He was a likely niger, sure enough aud

a mortgage for 800. Well, ! came back
to Cincinnati, and in about three weeks

and ! thought he was done for sure, but be
came round che day and We divided up.
Then the mortgages came due, and / col
lected them, every buyer slyin' the coon
had escaped. Well, it's the honest truth,
| sold that Niger fourteen times. Then
came the telegraph, and We had to stop it,
but yOu can't imagine how much money
we coined These days are not the old
ones for making Nancy"

"Ye; his wife died in the insane asylum
